Introduction of the load test of decanter centrifuge

After the no-load test run of decanter centrifuge is qualified, the load test can be carried out according to the operating regulations, and the load test time is not less than 8h.

  1. Start-up sequence

Speed ​​control potentiometer reset to zero position (if not reset to zero, the potentiometer is interlocked with the main motor control switch, the motor cannot start) Close the power brake, press the start button, the asynchronous motor starts, and observe whether the stabilizer oil mark comes Turn on the power switch of the speed controller, slowly turn the speed potentiometer knob to start the decanter centrifuge, increase the speed from 0 to the working speed of no less than 2min Press the work button, the overload protection circuit is put into operation, and the motor appears Current indication. The empty vehicle current is less than 18A when not feeding.

  1. Feeding operation

Feeding sequence: After the empty car runs at normal speed, it is rinsed with clean water for 5 minutes, and then fed to the continuous production. For example, after stopping the feed, rinse with clean water for 10 minutes, and then stop the host. The feeding speed should be strictly controlled. It is one of the important factors that determine the solid content of the filtrate and the moisture content of the slag. The motor current during feeding is the empty vehicle current plus 5~6A. There should be no leakage at the seals. After the operation, measure the temperature of the two main bearings. The temperature of the main bearing of the feed end is allowed to be +25 degrees of the feed temperature, the temperature of the main bearing of the other end is 65 degrees, and the temperature of the differential case is 70 degrees (both measured at the position of the case). Measure the vibration and vibration at the two main bearing seats. The strength is not more than 11.2mm/s. Measure whether the production capacity meets the requirements and carefully make test drive records.

Trouble Shooting Of Decanter Centrifuge Gear Box

Common failures of Decanter centrifuge gear boxes include tooth surface wear, tooth surface gluing and abrasions, tooth surface contact fatigue, bending fatigue and broken teeth. The causes are manufacturing errors, poor assembly, poor lubrication, overload, and operational errors. Due to the characteristics of the structure and working principle of the gear, its vibration signal is very complicated, and the vibration fault diagnosis of it needs to be analyzed in both the time domain and the frequency domain. Whether the gear is in a normal or abnormal state, the frequency of gear meshing stiffness always exists.

Therefore, the gearbox should be diagnosed based on the gearing frequency component of the gear. Due to the complexity of the gear signal, the fault has many effects on the vibration signal, especially due to the effect of amplitude modulation and frequency modulation, there are many sideband structures on the vibration spectrum of the gear, which requires specific analysis during the analysis and diagnosis Components to achieve accurate diagnosis of gearbox faults.

The characteristic frequency of the Decanter centrifuge gear box failure is as follows:

1. The normal frequency spectrum shows the 1X and meshing frequencies of all the rotating shafts. There are speed sidebands on both sides of the gear meshing frequency, and the peak value is small.

2. Gear wear. The natural frequency of the gear appears, and there is a speed sideband of the shaft where the worn gear is located. When the wear is obvious, a higher peak sideband will appear near the meshing frequency.

3. Decanter centrifuge gear eccentricity. There is a sideband of higher amplitude near the meshing frequency, indicating that the gear is eccentric or the shaft is not parallel, and the peak of the meshing frequency increases with the increase of the load.

4. The decanter centrifuge gears are misaligned. The vibration of the second or higher harmonics of the meshing frequency is almost always excited, and the peak value at the 2X or 3X meshing frequency spectrum line is large, and there is a side frequency of the rotation frequency interval.
